Agrigento Vigili del Fuoco Land Rover

History

Italy's Corpo Nazionale dei Vigili del Fuoco runs each province from a Comando Provinciale, and Agrigento's professional brigade covers the south-west Sicilian coast and hinterland. bos-fahrzeuge.info records its command fleet as three Land Rover Defenders and five road cars; this Defender 90 Tdi, photographed by Christopher Benkert in 2007, is in the national fire red with a white waist stripe lettered VIGILI DEL FUOCO, the 115 emergency number, COLONNA MOBILE — the mobile column for regional disaster response — across the top of the windscreen, two blue rotating beacons on the roof, black arches, mud flaps and red steel wheels.

The registry's model is a Defender 90 station wagon in red with the stripe and lettering, screen band, twin beacons and red wheels; in the game it carries water-pool pickups and the blue-light boost.
